The United States is full of cars. There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or more. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are a necessary part of life.
Cars are used for business. They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to get to their jobs. When salesmen are sent to different parts of the city, they have to drive in order to carry their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get supplies.
Sometimes small children must be driven to school. In some cities school buses are used only when children live more than a mile away from the school. When the children are too young to walk too far, their mothers take turns driving them to school. One mother drives on Mondays taking her own children and the neighbours' as well. Another mother drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesday, and so on. This is called forming a car pool. Men also form car pools, with three or four men taking turns driving to the place where they all work.
More car pools should be formed in order to put fewer cars on the road and use less gas. Too many cars are being driven. Something will have to be done about the use of cars.

English may not be a world language forever
While 375 million people around the globe use English as their native language, the number of people using it as a second language has already been well over that figure (数字).
It is said that by the end of 2000, one billion people could use English to communicate with others, including both native speakers and non-native speakers.
“The rise and fall of a language is closely connected with that country’s economic(经济的) strength and development potential (潜力).” Rhodri Jones, the English 2000 manager of the ELT group of the British Council said.
An expert who has given many lectures on the future of English said the economic boots(快速发展)in Asia would raise(提高) the position of the Chinese and Hindi languages. Therefore, the English language is facing a serious problem. Where will English turn in the next fifty years or the century?
The recently introduced book from Britain “Future of English” might give people concerned with their question some enlightenments (启发). The book helps to help English teachers, planners, managers and decision makers with a professional interest in the development of English worldwide.
With the book translated into Chinese and to be published soon, the book might be brought to wider sphere (范围)of people.
“From the book, we learn many facts about the English language, and we may be able to predict (预测) its future after reading it.” said Dorothy Humphrey, who used to be a senior English teacher for the British Council.
71.The reason why some language rises in the world depends on _______ .
A. the population of the country
B. the country’s economic strength in the world
C. the number of the population who use it
D. the country’s economic strength and development potential
72. The book “Future of English” helps to _______ .
A. improve the standard of people’s learning English
B. adds to people’s interest toward English
C. emphasize (强调) the importance in the world
D. make people interested in the development of English worldwide
73. After reading “Future of English” we know _______ .
A. English is the language that the people who speak it is the most in the world
B. English may disappear sooner or later
C. the world is keeping changing all the time
D. what the future of the English language is
74. The main idea of the passage is _______ .
A. why English has been popular in the world
B. how to improve people’s ability of learning English
C. English has a bright future
D. the usage of English may become less in the world one day
75. According to this passage, English may not be a world language forever because _______
A. more and more people will come to visit China
B. people in the world won’t like English in the future.

Saturday July 5, 20004 Fine
It was a very nice day today. Our class had a wonderful trip to Beidaihe for weekend. We started in our school bus at 7:20 in the morning and arrived at Beidaihe two hours later. It was a very beautiful place indeed. First we swam and boated in the warm sun shine and blue sea water. Next we had our lunch at a small restaurant near the beach, enjoying the fresh air from the sea. Then after lunch we took a walk along the beach to another beautiful place Nandaihe, where we took many pictures of ourselves playing in the sea and on the beach. Finally it was time for us to go back home, so we took our school bus to return at 7:30 in the afternoon. On the way back, all of us said it was really an unforgettable experience in our life.
